There are three basic ways to attach the cable to a product. Double-sided tape, fastener, or loop. We are always looking to add to our end fitting list. If you require something that is not shown please ask.

The PULLBOX® has 4 cable exit location possibilities. We provide these because the best performance and life are achieved when the cable is extended straight out of the box. The exit locations are shown below:

Box Color:

The PULLBOX® can be black, grey or white. Custom colors are available with minimum quantity requirements.

Applications for the PULLBOX® can mostly be found in Point-of-Purchase (POP) Displays as a retail security tether and product positioning. PULLBOXES® are also used for equipment counterbalancing, wire harness positioning, product or parts feeding and signage support.
